[hpsdr] Teamspeak and "3d Waterfall"

[John Marvin]

  I'm not sure it is really all that useful. After studying it for a few 
seconds I realized that basically the 3rd dimension is signal strength, 
which is what is conveyed by color in the 2d waterfall.  I'm not sure I 
would get much if any benefit from the 3d version, and I think for 
actual use I would prefer the 2d version.

I'm not denying that it looks really pretty, and would be fun to show 
off. But unless someone can come up with a better use for the 3rd 
dimension, I don't think I'd ever actually use it.
